Overview

The H-RTK ZED-F9P Rover is an upgraded version of the original H-RTK F9P Rover. This RTK GPS features the u-blox ZED-F9P GNSS receiver, RM3100 Compass, and a tri-colored LED indicator, providing precise positioning and orientation data. It also boasts an IP66 rating, offering robust protection against dust and water, making it suitable for challenging environments.

This RTK GPS offers multi-band RTK capabilities with rapid convergence times and consistent performance. It supports concurrent reception of GPS (L1 & L2), GLONASS, Galileo, and BeiDou signals, ensuring reliable and precise positioning. This RTK GPS delivers centimeter-level accuracy with the use of a base station or NTRIP service. Additionally, there is also a DroneCAN option that offers MCU, IMU, barometer, and robust communication and integration for advanced UAV systems.

The high-precision PNI RM3100 compass ensures accurate orientation and stability, offering exceptional reliability, making it ideal for demanding UAV applications. It provides high resolution, low power consumption, large signal noise immunity, a large dynamic range, and high sampling rates. Its measurements are stable over temperature and inherently free from offset drift.
